day evening, to the Logan Fire
company, toward the purchase of a
‘new triple pumper manufactured by

‘on the market and are agreed on the

to the needs of Bellefonte. The

pany's old White pumper on an al-
lowance of $2,300, making the net
price of the new machine $9,200.

borough any money they may re-
‘ceive in excess of $1400 in the sale
of the old pumper. O. B. Malin,

ed the matter to council, Monday

pany will pay half the cost of the
new pumper, in cash, as soon as it
is received, tested and approved by

the resolution granting the appro-
priation it was stipulated that the
borough will pay it's share in cash
on December 1st. As it will be well
on to three months from the time
the order is placed until the pumper
can be delivered it will be late in
the fall before it will be received.

Joseph Labardo, the proprietor, was
placed under arrest and taken to
jail but later posted $750 cash bail
for trial at court. Lebardo has had
charge of the place for more than a
year and always contended that he
was operating a strictly temperance
road house. Prohibition authorities
have had the place under surveil-
(lance for some time but up until last
week they were unable to get any
‘definite evidence of the sale of
liquor or beer. The unfortunate cir-
cumstance of the suicide of Virgil S.
Shuey, out on the hill near the Inn,
on May 17th, after he had been a
guest there for several hours during
the previous night, may have stirred
the authorities to more intensive
efforts to discover the exact charac-
ter of the place.
It will be recalled that several
years ago the house was opened by
“Little Joe" Decinzi and conducted
under the name of “The Black Cat.”
It was later raided and a quantity of
liquor and beer confiscated. Decinzi
was placed under arrest and gave
bail for court, but later jumped his
‘bail and is now a fugitive from jus-
tice.
‘WEST PENN POWER TO USE
A NEW BILLING PLAN.
Effective about August 1 the West
Penn Power Company will introduce
a new plan for billing users of the
service. The present custom of send-
ing out all bills at one time will be
abandoned and the service area will
be divided into nine zones, so that
only those patrons in the same zone
will receive their bills at the same
time.
The change will not affect rates
/in any way. It is only being made
with the thought of insuring great-
er convenience to consumer and
‘company by relieving the congestion
(that follows the first few days after
monthly bills have been mailed.
It will also accomplish the pur-
pose of giving the consumer a more
nearly stable thirty day statement
of consumption, for under the pres-
‘ent system it is physically impossi-
ble for meter readers and account-
having one month long and another
i
| short at times.

NOTED GEOLOGIST SAYS
| OIL AND GAS ARE UNDER US.
O. L. Williams, noted oil and gas
engineer and geologist, predicts that
both oil and gas will soon be found
in Centre county.
So sure is he of the fulfillment of
‘his prediction that already Mr. C.
V. Hughes, financier, of Philadel- :
phia, with several assistants, has
‘established headquarters in Belle-
fonte for the Centre County Devel-
‘opment Co. This organization has
no affiliation with any other group
of oil operators. Its financial re-
quirements have been underwritten
by outside capital and it has no
stock to sell. It is interested only
in leasing and drilling.
Soon it will publish a map show-
ing the geologically favorable terri-
tory for drilling in Centre county
and then leasing under the usual
‘nominal fee plus one-eighth royalty.
We are not in position to say
more of the project at this time but
next week we will give you all that
develops meanwhile.
